he is a great trainer, very good tactically

he maybe be goofy and a dumbass when speaking infront of cameras but in the gym hes the man

He's very knowledgeable about the basics and the foundation of boxing.

Anymore than that and it goes right over his head. He's not good at making a gameplan as Floyd usually has to adjust on his own during the fight anyway.

You can't take him very seriously tactically when he says Pacman can't fight.

Roger and Mayweather Sr. predicted Hatton, Cotto and DLH to dismantle and kill Pacquiao in 3 rounds.

Roger has no credibility at all.

Again, that means nothing. Those werent real opinions. They had nothing to do with the fighters or fight itself. They just picked the other guy every time because they felt that Pac wasnt big enough, plain & simple.

WTF was that? To say that it wasn't a "real" opinion because it was based on Pacquiao not being big enough is so lame it's ****ing amazing. Then no picks are real because they are often based on one fighter being too slow, no power, bad defense, too small or whatever.

Nah man, its different. Even on 24/7 when they asked Roger about Hatton he said that Hatton better win or retire if he cant beat a little man like that. If you asked him who will win between Pac-JMM or Campbell or whoever then he wouldve said a real pick. If you asked him about Pac vs anyone over LW then they are going to pick the bigger guys no matter who they are as long as they are respectable. I know how some think a guy will win because he's bigger & stronger but this is different. Its black & white to them. Its like Pac is too small and I dont have to think about it. Thats why they think he is on the juice

I don't give a **** what he based his perdictions on to be honest with you, and it doesn't matter. If I pick fighter x to win over fighter y because of his speed, power or strength is irrelevant. What you do is you asses the fight, compare the fighters and figure out how you think the fight will end based of the fighters strengths, weaknesses and styles.

Either you can make a good assessment and make the right pick, or you can't. Like Roger.

So are saying that they just hate Manny that's why they weren't giving real opinion? hmmm.. sounds fishy.

Can you read what you have wrote? I hardly understand it.

Its either they're just really ****** and biased on their opinion towards Manny.

What picking fights has to do with being a great trainer? Hes a great trainer, he knows his fighter inside out, and he knows how to pace him in the fight, he knows when floyd has to use his jab, or when he has to walk the guy down. He can read the other fighter's state in the ring, he knows when its time to step it up. He doesnt need to do more than this with floyd, because Floyd is a great fighter anyway.

Roger Mayweather maybe dumb overall
